One of the recent "Homefront" ads from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints was recognized thusly,Have you ever heard of binge eating bulimic Seagulls? They actually ate the crickets, went for a little drink in creek, then vomited them up and went back for more. This went on for 3 WEEKS until all the crickets were gone!
“We were fearfully alarmed, for all of a sudden, circling above our … fields, appeared great flocks of screaming gulls. ‘A new plague is descending upon us,’ was our first thought. Down the gray and white birds swooped in hundreds, then in thousands, uttering shrill … cries as they pounced upon [the crickets]. … Then a strange thing happened. As soon as they had gorged themselves, they sailed over to a nearby stream, took a few sips of water, disgorged [vomited] and returned to join their screaming companions. All our people stood in wonderment! Our prayers were answered” (quoted in Grant, p. 446).
The seagulls came back day after day for about three weeks. They ate crickets until all the crickets were gone. The Saints knew their prayers had been answered in a miraculous way. They were grateful that their crops and their lives had been spared.

"I'm positive that if anyone out there simply tries this water bottle, they will see my side. It's not really as weird as it sounds. I just want to be with someone who doesn't leak all over my car, you know? Someone who I can clip my keys onto at the gym. Someone who doesn't get all worked up when I push their buttons. I know I'm making the right choice."
